Kernel question

[David Hacker]

You probably don't have the 3.01. updates in your yum.conf file.
http://ydl.oregonstate.edu/yum/3.0.1/update/
Add it and then you will get the newest kernel source.
And you should cd into the kernel directory and at least do make  
menuconfig to get a default config file in the directory.
